Beautiful Russian Leather Razor Strop

The Illinois #827 Razor Strop has a 2 1/2" wide by 16" long stropping surface. The overall length is 24" including hand grip, and has a sturdy clip for hanging. This strop has two independent belts, a leather belt and a linen belt. The linen belt is for initial stropping and the leather belt is for fine stropping. This beautiful strop is ideal for straight razors.

This strop is made from Russian Leather. Russian Leather is made with a special tanning process that results in a tough, long lasting yet beautifully supple surface that is ideal for razor strops. The Illinois #827 is the same size as the Illinois #127 Razor Strop differing only in the special leather.

Q. Do you recommend Razor Strop Dressing for your Razor Strops?

A. Yes. The leather on Illinois Strops is treated to provide a good surface for stropping and dressing is not required on your new strop. However, the addition of Fromm's Razor Strop Dressing improves the texture, creating an ideal stropping surface. Older strops that are showing signs of hardening or drying out can also be rejuvenated with Fromm's Razor Strop Dressing.

Q. What are the differences between the various strops you offer?

A. To see a comparison of the strops, see our article Comparing Razor Strops. It is a helpful guide for finding the right strop for you.
